Graduate Recruitment Consultant - London and NYC
London
£20-25k base plus uncapped OTE
At SuperGrad we help kick start the careers of the highest performing graduates by finding their perfect match in the recruitment industry.
This position as a Graduate Recruitment Consultant with a high-performing firm in The City will see you spend six months in New York as the firm sets up their office in Manhattan. To be a truly successful Graduate Recruitment Consultant your drive and attitude towards success are more important than your background.
If you think you have what it takes to become a graduate recruitment consultant, apply now.
Recruitment is first and foremost a sales role: you sell your clients a job, and to your clients you sell a person. So what would you do:
* Sourcing candidates through online platforms, such as LinkedIn or CV databases, or from the company database.
* Cold-call potential candidates at their desk to recruit them for a specific job.
* Contact potential clients to initiate new relationships.
* Arrange to meet your clients and candidates at their offices and throughout the City and New York City.
* Manage candidates through the interview and hiring process, as well as being a mediator in negotiations once a candidate has been offered.
Recruitment is one of the most progressive and rewarding careers out there and perfect way for any graduate to start their career. So what would you get:
* A starting salary of £20-25k and uncapped OTE. Most graduates will earn at least £35k in commission in their first year, but many will earn far above this.
* As we work with small, niche recruitment companies, career progression is quick, with the option to progress to Senior Recruitment Consultant or even Team Leader within a matter of years.
* Great benefits to graduate recruitment consultants, from gym memberships, trips abroad and company holidays, and to monthly lunch clubs.
* Other benefits may include flexible working hours and duvet days - ensuring you want to come into work on Monday morning.
Recruitment is mostly about your mind-set going into work, so what do you need to become a successful graduate recruitment consultant:
* Ambition: the most ambitious graduates, who want to progress in their career quickly, will perform the highest in recruitment.
* Hard-working: a history that shows you are hard-working. Whether you worked 30 hours a week during your degree or started work when you were 15, there are many ways you can provide evidence for this.
* Competitive nature: recruitment is extremely competitive. Whether you did a lot of sport, were an elected rep or have experience working in a KPI driven environment, a competitive attitude is vital.
* Money motivated: a drive to earn money will help you do well as graduate recruitment consultant.
* Resilience: any sales role means constant rejection. You have to show resilience to be successful.
And preferably:
* Sales experience: whether you did promotion work for a night club at uni, worked as a student ambassador or you have worked towards targets, they will all help you.
